ROTARY TOOL, PARTICULARLY A DRILL, AND A CUTTING HEAD FOR SUCH A ROTARY TOOL
A rotary tool comprising two coupling parts, namely a carrier and a cutting head in a front end surface. The carrier comprises a pin receptacle into which a coupling pin of the cutting head is inserted. In order to prevent pulling-out in an axial direction, stop surfaces are provided on the pin receptacle and on the coupling pin, said stop surfaces being effective in an axial direction. For a design that is as simple as possible, in particular with regard to grinding, each stop surface of the coupling pin is adjoined by a lateral surface which freely tapers off in the direction toward the end surface as viewed in the axial direction. In particular, the lateral surface constitutes a torque surface.
TOOL COUPLING BETWEEN TWO COUPLING PARTS, AND COUPLING PART FOR SUCH A TOOL COUPLING
A tool coupling used for a clamping connection between two coupling parts, in particular between a cutting head and a carrier of a rotary tool, in particular of a drill. The coupling parts comprise clamping sections, which respectively correspond to one another and which can be clamped against each other by turning counter to a predefined direction of rotation about an axis of rotation so that a press fit is produced. In order to produce a high clamping force and at the same time allow for a simple installation via screwing in, each clamping section comprises several successive clamping surfaces whichwith respect to a cross section viewed orthogonally to the axial directionrespectively travel along a circular arc, wherein the diameter increases for clamping surfaces succeeding one another in the direction of rotation.
Tool holder assembly with dampening elements
In one aspect, tool holders employing axial sleeves and dampening elements are described herein. Tool holders described herein define a central longitudinal axis and comprise a tool holder body having a connector portion and a holder portion. The connector portion is structured to engage a rotary machine and the holder portion is disposed opposite the connector portion and has an inner diameter surface comprising a plurality of axial grooves. Tool holders described herein further comprise a tool receiver structured to receive at least a portion of a cutting tool, the tool receiver having an outer diameter surface comprising a plurality of axial grooves. The tool receiver is mounted in the holder portion so as to align the axial grooves of the inner and outer diameter surfaces and define axial sleeves filled with dampening elements.
Drill cutting insert
A drill cutting insert has a cutting edge at a transition between a side surface and a top side which is formed with n identical cutting corners and n identical partial cutting edges with n{3, 4} extending between the cutting corners. Each of the n partial cutting edges has: adjoining a first cutting corner, a main lip which is straight in plan view of the top side; adjoining the other cutting corner, a secondary lip which is straight in plain view of the top side, and a transition section, via which the main lip and the secondary lip merge into one another and which has a convex section adjoining the main lip and a concave section adjoining the secondary lip. The main and secondary lips enclose on the outside an angle a <180 in plan view of the top side.
Drilling tool
A drilling tool for machining structural components made of a titanium alloy includes: a support, which extends along an axis of rotation in the axial direction, the support having an end face with a receptacle disposed centrally therein; a plurality of cutting inserts inserted at the end face in a manner that forms a flat drill, each cutting insert having an active insert cutting edge extending transversely to the axial direction; and a drilling tip disposed in the receptacle and having at least two tip cutting edges, the tip cutting edges extending outward from the axis of rotation and being adjoined in each case by at least one active insert cutting edge.
